    They need to be investigated, the current behavior is simply unacceptable.

      "I don’t have all the details yet but it appears that Trump’s goons have murdered another American in Minneapolis.

      This is the third shooting involving federal agents in the city this month, including the murder of Renee Good, 37, on Jan. 7.

      The person who was killed is believed to be a 37-year-old man, an American citizen who lived in Minneapolis."

          @wdlindsy A city which exemplifies social justice, community and values is being targeted by Trump deliberately. He wants to destroy humane behaviour and replace it with “do as I say or else you may well die” brutality.

            "And that just looked like a flat out execution. I mean, even if the man was trying to struggle, even if as early... early reports from DHS are that he had a gun.

            There's just no way that he could have, with that many people on top of him, really be a threat that would justify that kind of use of force."

            @wdlindsy he did have a gun, from all angles i’ve seen, he never pulled it out, an ice agent did.

            Outrageous execution in broad daylight, and political violence on a level i never hoped i would witness.

              @xs4me2 @wdlindsy That’s the whole point - they won’t be investigated. Trump wants this. The provocation is deliberate and it’s intensifying.

                      @LukefromDC @wdlindsy Seems to be getting pretty darn close. I guess we’ll soon see a stand off between the national guard and the regular military. Then things could really head towards #civilwar.

                            There are plenty of ways to sabotage ICE that don't involve gun battles in the streets. Be smart, people. Use your anger - don't let it use you.

                                    @wdlindsy Yes, how many more need to die before you ORDER YOUR CITY POLICE TO PROTECT THE CITIZENS, Mayor Frey? Or the National Guard, Governor Walz?

                                    Or are you both too busy planning another strongly-worded protest?
